Replacement Drive Shaft Sensor - Dual Channel

The Replacement Drive Shaft Sensor – Dual Channel by AutoMeter (SKU ATM5212) is a precision magnetic pickup sensor designed for high-performance tachometer systems that require accurate real-time engine speed monitoring. This dual-channel design allows simultaneous signal capture from multiple driveshaft or engine reference points, making it essential for street machines, race cars, and performance builds where reliable RPM data directly impacts tuning and diagnostics.

Utilizing proven magnetic induction technology, this sensor detects driveshaft or reluctor ring rotation and transmits clean digital pulses to compatible AutoMeter instrumentation. Its compact form factor (5.7 × 1 × 7.75 inches) and lightweight construction (0.11 lbs) allow for discreet installation near the driveshaft, differential, or custom-mounted reluctor wheels without adding bulk or parasitic load to rotating components.

Professionals and enthusiasts rebuilding or servicing AutoMeter tachometer systems will benefit most from this replacement sensor, as it restores accurate playback functionality to AutoMeter dual-channel tachometers. The dual-channel architecture enables simultaneous monitoring of primary and secondary engine parameters, reducing signal noise and improving accuracy in complex ignition or fuel injection scenarios.
